Just commenting to tell you that the last episode of this new show, Archer, on FX had a pretty detailed ‘Bartleby, The Scrivener’ reference! The dialogue:

“…Not as much as I love chocolate, so you- bring plenty of it!”
“I-I would prefer not to…’Bartleby, The Scrivener’? Anybody? Not a big Melville crowd here, huh? Ah yeah, well, it’s not an easy read.”

I was so surprised by it, I had to share. Especially because Archer, a raunchy, animated comedy for adults, ranked pretty low on my list of shows on which I’d expect to hear an relatively obscure literary reference.
